Rain or shine, keen children from Goodstart Early Learning Bathurst leave behind toys, books and buildings for their Bush Kindy session in Mount Panorama-Wahluu’s bushland.

The local daycare centre is one of the first to offer this innovative program in NSW, after seeing its popularity in Victoria, and similar programs overseas.

For up to six hours every Monday, the preschool-aged children have only the bush to entertain themselves.
